PvP game design

[Kakarat]

We definitely need better controls for PC games, and the Wii Remote is a great concept. I understand there's a new version of it in the works that's supposed to be more accurate / less twitchy.

In WW2O, I often think about how unnatural it is to use a mouse to control a gun. Ideally, you should just be holding a gun and using a projector to display the game image on your wall, however big that wall is. Even if you have to use a keypad and buttons on the gun for moving and other activities, at least the aiming and shooting part should feel natural.

And there's no reason we can't do that today. Wii type controllers should become a new standard for PC gaming. The mouse would still be superior for some games, I think, but you could do a lot with a Wii style controller backed by a PC gaming rig.

There are of course items such as a steering wheel or a gun that you can place the Wii remote in already. Steering wheel for mario kart and im not sure what the gun was for, but I have seen it.

Arming for the future
